The idea of a new financial era — one that merges traditional finance with blockchain innovation — is gaining momentum. Chad Steingraber, a well-known crypto analyst, recently claimed that XRP and ONDO are “building the foundation of Wall Street 2.0,” following Ondo Finance’s teaser for its upcoming “Wall Street 2.0 Is Here” summit.
Ondo Summit Unites TradFi and Blockchain Giants
Set for February 3, 2026, in New York, the Ondo Summit is shaping up to be one of the most significant finance-meets-blockchain events in years. The lineup includes major Wall Street players — Goldman Sachs, BlackRock, Citi, Franklin Templeton, and State Street — alongside blockchain leaders like Ripple, Chainlink, and LayerZero.
The event’s theme, “Wall Street 2.0,” reflects a growing recognition that the future of global finance will likely be a hybrid of traditional systems and decentralized technology. Though the full speaker list hasn’t been released, anticipation is high across both sectors.
XRP’s Role in the Institutional Blockchain Shift
XRP, through Ripple’s cross-border payment network, continues to prove its utility in institutional finance. With partners like SBI Group and Tranglo, Ripple’s infrastructure enables fast, low-cost, and regulatory-compliant global settlements — a cornerstone capability for the financial systems of the future.
Steingraber emphasized that this type of integration gives real-world credibility to crypto’s long-term promise, positioning XRP as a critical asset in the ongoing modernization of finance.
I'm not sure what else would convince the non-believer.

ONDO’s Real-World Asset Revolution
Ondo Finance, on the other hand, is pioneering the tokenization of real-world assets (RWA) — transforming instruments like money market funds and U.S. Treasuries into on-chain, easily tradable assets. Earlier this year, the firm launched tokenized Short-Term U.S. Treasuries (OUSG) on the XRP Ledger (XRPL), signaling deeper collaboration between the two ecosystems.

Together, XRP and ONDO represent two sides of the same coin: cross-border liquidity and tokenized real-world value.
If “Wall Street 2.0” truly is here, it may be built on a foundation of interoperability — where XRP powers global movement of money, and ONDO digitizes traditional assets. As Steingraber suggests, these partnerships could redefine how capital flows across markets, bridging old finance with the new.
